The nation's biggest Internet service provider bounced back dozens of e-mail messages sent by Harvard to its early applicants this month --- deleting the big news as junk mail.

This article prompted me to email everyone in my address book on AOL to tell them that I had a new address. Well, don't do it all at once like I did, you'll see what happened if you keep reading. And don't forget to Blind CC everybody. I forgot to do it, but AOL rejected a few of my addresses, so I thought I was safe. Then I sent the email again, with everyone Blind CC'd. They probably just got two emails from me. Ugh!

AOL Rejects Me.
When I sent the email, I got logged off AOL and received this message:

Bulk Mailing is against AOL's Terms of Service. This account has been disabled.

Stupid AOL.

My attempts to log back in to AOL were rejected.

Maybe instead of disabling my account you could just limit the number of people that you can send a message to. An error message after I hit send that said, "We're sorry, but you can only send emails to 20 people at a time.", might have been a better solution.

2. No more gifts cards to The Gap.
You know it takes a lot of time and preparation for us to go to the Gap and purchase those gift cards for you. No acknoledgement by either phone or mail leads us to believe that you don't care if you see them next year.

Contact at the Colonial Theatre: Review.
Well this was a great way for my wife to trick me into going to see a ballet! Thats right, that's what ACT II was, a ballet disguised as a dinner dance in an Italian restaurant. I got past it though. If theatre is meant to make you feel for the characters, it worked. I'll admit that I felt bad for the emotionally battered wife.

Punter Ken Walter was a former ball boy for the Cleveland Browns when Belichick was their coach. Belichick said when Walter's ball boy duties were complete, he often spent time punting with Tom Tupa, who was Cleveland's punter.

As soon as I turned eighteen I went into one of the strip clubs in Vegas and applied for a job. The guy said to me, "As soon as you get your braces off." So I went home and pried my braces off with needle-nose pliers. And I went to work the next day.

Yikes! I guess she really wanted to strip all her clothes off on stage?

The Daily Nonsense has a weblog where they talk about this lady that lives across the street who watches everything in the neighborhood, especially the location of parked cars. Her husband seems reasonable though.

Yankee Swap or How to stop buying way too many gifts for your family.
It finally got to the point where it was silly for our family to exchange gifts with each other at the holidays. So what we do now is bring a wrapped gift worth around $25, and have a Yankee Swap.

Yankee Swap Rules:
1) Everyone is assigned a number randomly. This defines the gift selection order.

2) Going in ascending order by number, each victim selects a gift (avoiding their own), opens it and then has the option of trading
it for any gift opened so far.

3) The first person may, after all gifts have been opened, trade their gift with anyone.

The best part of this game is when you get to take a gift from someone who has already opened a gift and give them your crappy gift! This year I got a George Foreman Grill.

The Station. 65,162 game players can't be wrong. I enjoyed playing Jeopardy, but blew it by wagering $10,000 in Double Jeapardy and losing. You can meet some hot looking avatar girls there... at least they said they were girls.

Other countries have their own unique hangover cures:
a. In Germany, some folks eat marinated fish
b. In Holland many eat raw baby herring covered in onions
c. In Puerto Rico, some people rub lemons or limes under their arms.

Man, I love this show. My wife can't understand it. I really don't care as long as she leaves me alone while I enjoy all the trials and tribulations of those wacky guys and girls as they examine the foibles of male/female realtionships.

They sure did go crazy with those body shots. More power to them, I say.

''I turned a touchdown into a 23-yard gain,'' joked Brady, whose catch and run made him the team's third-leading receiver in yardage yesterday. ''It was a good throw. It's different when you're running and trying to catch it. Now I know when I'm cussing out those receivers for dropping balls how hard it really is.''

It was fun watching the best half of football I've seen all year. This post-season is going to be fun. Go Pats!

Found in the StreetThe other day we were over at BJ's getting some stuff and while we were packing the car my wife saw a notebook on the street.

This discussion followed:

She said: Hey, there's a notebook on the street.
I said: Hey cool. Maybe there's something interesting in it.
She said: Don't touch it, it's dirty!
I said: But there might be some good stuff in there. You know people have whole websites where they scan in and post found stuff on the web. But you probably don't care.

At this point she gave me a look, and I picked up the notebook. I opened it and flipped through it. It was a disapointment. All that was in there was some addition and subtraction math problems.

I said: I'm just gonna leave this here in case the kid comes back looking for it.

Tentatively titled "Firefly,'' the new ensemble series takes place 500 years in the future and revolves around the crew of a "small, incredibly mobile spaceship whose aft end lights up,'' Whedon said -- hence the name.

"There'll be scary-ass humans,'' he said. "I can make people that are scarier than anything you can put in latex."

The object of the game is to get control of the carcass and get it to the scoring area. (AP Photo/Maxim Marmur)

USA! USA! USA! USA!

I saw this in the paper today and was amazed, online it's even cooler.

But that will be changing soon. Oh, yes it will. I just ordered 128MB more memory online at Crucial.com. It was a great price. I found an ad for them in a magazine in my doctor's office yesterday. Advertising works. Their web site is great. It made buying memory really easy. The site guided me through the exact configuration of my 5 year old system and lead me to the memory I ended up purchasing. Their follow up emails confirming the order and shipping were timely.

Update:
The memory arrived via Fed Ex the next day and I installed it with no problems. These guys rule!

I would have gone down there to get the full story, but seeing that we were in the middle of a movie, a pay per view movie, I thought it prudent to continue watching the movie and ignore the holiday cheer of the trespassers.

Eye Problems!Here's a good excuse you can use for not going to work. Call in and say you can't go in because of eye problems. If they ask what's wrong, just tell them that you can't see coming in to work.

Just came back from an eye doctor's appointment and everything is blurry. So much for that doctor! Ha. Not really. They gave me eye drops which dialated my pupils, so they are now huge. Driving home wasn't a problem, I just kept my eyes closed.

The doctor was cool.

They don't send a puff of air into your eyes anymore when looking inside there for Glaucoma. When that old blue light came along I was bracing myself for the puff of air that never came. That shows my age.

They eye test was the typical pain in the neck.

Can you read this:

Can you read this:

And then the switching of lenses came. Is this better than this one? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Is #1 better or #2? Or is there no difference.

ANSWER: NO DIFFERENCE. Can I go now?

They must be able to hook up a computer to make this test more accurate. After a while it all looks blurry.

The photographs include Sarah Bennett, a sixth-former, posing topless with her arms folded across her chest. The cover girl is shown draped seductively on a sofa.

Ok, let me get this straight, the kids go to a school called Sexey's, and people are upset that they posed partially nude for a school calendar? What is this world coming to and can someone find me a picture of Miss June?

I'm testing my online connection speeds now that I have a cable modem.

My connection is four times faster on my stand alone Internet Explorer, connected directly to ATT Broadband, than the AOL Internet Explorer I use when signed on to AOL.

I feel bad thinking about leaving AOL. I've been with them so long. All my friends have my aol.com email address. Change is difficult. I'm sure that's how AOL keeps so many members, resistance to change.

So I started looking into different ideas about leaving AOL and found some interesting things.

Some quotes from the show:
"The guys were drooling over the new girl." Ha Ha. Well, they weren't actually drooling over the new girl, they just encircled her and drooled on themselves. Then they all took turns throwing her into the pool to wash off.

"The new guy is HOT!, and he's got a job! Check, Check, that's two off my list." I wonder what else is on her list.

My Dating Checklist 1. Is he Hot?
2. Does he have a job?
3. Are his eyes blue or green?
4. Is he blonde.
5. Does he have muscles?

Tune in next week to see if Edmundo gets another chance with the blonde crybaby.

That kid they kicked outwas stupid for breaking the rules. He just wasn't thinking when he went out to party. He said he just wants to do what he wants to do. Guess what? He has plenty of time to do whatever he wants now, except become a highly paid member of a superstar pop rock group.

Two and a half months ago, I was being roasted at my going-away party in Boston. Exactly two months ago, I was introducing myself to thousands of Chicagoans for the first time. Two days ago, I resigned from the Chicago Tribune.

10 Steps to Adding a Router to an ATT Broadband Cable Modem ConfigurationWhat follows are my notes from installing a router between my PC and cable modem. ATT Broadband technicians wouldn't install my router. They only install the cable modem to one PC. The three techicians who came to install my cable modem knew nothing about routers. What follows are the steps I took to place a router between the PC and the cable modem after the ATT Broadband people left my house. These steps worked for me. I hope they can give you something to try if you get stuck.

Please note that I couldn't find STEP #5 below documented anywhere. When I talked to ATT they said they knew it wasn't documented anywhere. Yikes. Good luck.

2. Unhook the cable from your PC Network card and plug it in to the WAN port of your ROUTER. Now you have the cable hooked up between the modem and the router. My modem is a Motorola SURFboard Model SB4100.

9. If you are having trouble, go back to the Linksys config page and make sure the MAC ADDRESS hasn't changed. If it has, click ADVANCED, then click MAC Addr. Cloning, and key in the MAC ADDRESS you told ATT about earlier.

"I haven't had a shower in two weeks and I have to defend whether I'm carrying a six-shooter?" the former talk show host said to the AP. "It's ridiculous." ... his policy violates Geneva Convention rules stating that journalists should go unarmed in war zones to distinguish them clearly from combatants.

Getting off is like taking your ski boots off after a day on the mountain. You have to learn how to walk again. It's the first time I've learned a new way of moving in a personal way, in a very long time. It's as different as riding a bike is from walking, as skiing is from driving a car.

Uh... what was the other way of personal moving you learned about. No, wait... I don't want to know.

The next blow came from a man I saw carrying a big stone in his right hand. He brought it down on my forehead with tremendous force and something hot and liquid splashed down my face and lips and chin. I was kicked. On the back, on the shins, on my right thigh... Oddly, it wasn't fear I felt but a kind of wonderment. So this is how it happens. I knew that I had to respond. Or, so I reasoned in my stunned state, I had to die.

Elinor Burkett, who at age fifty-five became a member of the class of 2000, reports on high school today through a journalist's eyes.

They were very quick to begin to invite me to parties. It was cute—the second party I was invited to, the boy who invited me said, "I have been authorized to invite you to this bonfire, but everyone wants to make sure that you're going to feel comfortable, because there's going to be drugs." And I was like, "Well, I've probably been around a lot more drugs than you have! The question is whether you're comfortable having me there."

At Least One of my 9/11 Donations Made it to a Family.
Bill O'Reilly has a done a great job pressuring the charities to get the money, which we donated to the 9/11 funds, to the people who need it.

That's a good thing. I hope that the money I gave to the United Way gets to a family soon.

I do know that one donation I made got to a family. That's because I just received a thank you from the husband of Tara Creamer. She died in the crash of American Airlines Flight 11. She was a cousin of a good friend.

If you want to make a donation that will go directly to a family, here's where you can send it:

After listening to Britney Spears's new album more times than is advisable, I've finally figured out what's wrong. Ignoring the obvious - she can't sing very well, her repertoire is a mess, and mom forgot to tell her that it's anatomically impossible to be a virgin and a whore at the same time - what's truly disturbing about ''Britney'' is how anguished the girl sounds.

In the future city Washington D.C. circa 2080 A.D., when technology has advanced to the point where crimes can be detected before they're committed, a police officer (Tom Cruise) in the Pre-Crimes division finds himself hunted (by Colin Farrell) for a murder he hasn't even committed yet...

AppleInsider has learned that the new-generation iMac will be introduced in the first months of 2002... Its external design will be nothing short of spectacular. The new iMac will continue the convenience of the All in One design that the current model holds, but in a significantly sexier manner.

Based around a 15” TFT Flat-Panel display, running at a native resolution of 1024x768, the new iMac will closely resemble the current 15” Apple Studio Display from many angles. However, the enclosure will be thicker (so as to accommodate the extra bulk of computer internals), and constructed with more robust, scratchproof materials similar in texture and finish to the iBook.

Professors and undergraduate students are now prohibited from having sexual or romantic relationships, due to the Board of Visitors' Nov. 16 approval of the College's new amorous relations policy.

Under the previous amorous relations policy adopted in 1991, faculty were only required to inform department chairs or deans that they were romantically or sexually involved with a student they might be in a position to grade or evaluate.

The new policy also allows the deans of the Schools of Arts and Sciences to grant exemptions from the policy in "exceptional circumstances." According to Kennedy, such circumstances would be where the student and faculty member would be able to show that their amorous relationship did not compromise any professional relationship. It also requires that violations of the policy be reported within two years of an alleged violation.

They fired rockets down drainage channels leading to the subterranean rooms. They poured oil down the crevices and set it alight. And just in case the Taliban fighters down there concluded that it was safe to get out, guards fired warning shots down the stairwells every few minutes.

The complex was freezing. The Taliban fighters had nothing to eat for six days. They had a little water, but that soon ran out. Some of the fighters killed a horse and dragged it downstairs to eat, it seems.

Wheaton has long been one of geekdom's favorite whipping boys, taking unending abuse for his role as Wesley Crusher, the whiny, know-it-all teenager on TV's Star Trek: The Next Generation.

But now, thanks to a self-coded, shamelessly dorky website, many of the same folks who loathed Wheaton on the show are finding out he's a whole lot like them in real life.

As many as 90,000 people per month have beaten a path to WilWheaton.net since it opened late last summer. Hollywood is showing renewed interest. And, after years of being shut out from the official Star Trek family, Wheaton's got a cameo role in the latest Star Trek film.

Hello Hollywood... I have a self-coded, shamelessly dorky website too!

"Hey, look at me! I'm on my Segway and propelling it with no hands! You're up at the top of the steps. Ha, Ha. Look down the sidewalk at that poor guy walking! Do you believe he's still doing that? And look at those 4,000 pound cars sitting there at the side of the road. Ouch!"

I lived two doors down from the two terrorists, in the guesthouse-cum-office next to the newly inaugurated guesthouse where Commander Massoud was staying. That Sunday, around 12:00 noon, as my American friend and I were getting ready to go to the village square to buy Afghan clothes, from the common patio that ran the length of the guesthouse rooms I watched the two terrorists go for the 'interview', their camera(s) in a brown-mustard color briefcase carried by Abdul, the waiter. They were accompanied by Fahim Dashti, the Afghan photographer, and Assim Suhail, the official of the ministry of Foreign Affairs in charge of both buildings. Of course, within 30 minutes, Commander Massoud was dead.

I am Superman [.jpg]I just had to share this photo my mom gave me today. It's a picture of me, in the Superman T-Shirt, and my friend Jeff. We had the best times growing up. These four shots really capture us as kids. I love that fourth one of me looking up. I was copying the sample pose that was posted outside the photo booth.

Temptation Island 2 - 11/29/01 ReviewTemptation Island 2 is one of my favorite TV shows. Last night I laughed with joy as that chick who has already decided that she wants to stay with her boyfriend started yelling at everyone to stop saying bad things about that boyfriend. Yelling is good.

There was a big conflict among the girls as to which boy should be sent home. More yelling. Nice.

Edmundo rocks. He started off on the chair sitting next to that blonde who really likes him. He was kinda tired so he moved over to the bed. She felt a little sleepy too, so she decided to take a rest on the same bed. They talked. He touched her and she moved closer. He squeezed her butt. She squeezed his arm. They drew closer and they kissed. They say they're confused but it doesn't look that way to me.

Next week one of the guys will get a video from his girlfriend that is not appropriate to view in a group. So in the coming attractions, the three other guys leave, and surprise, that yelling chick shows up to talk to him face to face. I wonder if she'll yell at him. It'll be funny if she tells him that she is all done with the show and feels that he is the one for her and that she wants to go home, and then finds out that he wants to stay because he is having too good a time with a girl who lets him control the situation, and that he wants to go on the big final date with her. I hope she yells. That'll be cool.

PopStars2 - 11/29/01 ReviewPopStars2 is one of my favorite TV shows. Last night I cried with joy as the finalists were chosen. The excitement was building as the final ten were followed around their homes with cameras and wireless microphones hooked up on their butts. They showed us their bedrooms and said things like, "This is my bed, this is where is sleep." Little did that contestant know that within a few minutes she would be laying on that bed crying her eyes out calling herself a total failure for not being selected as on of the finalists.

That young guy who tore his tendons in his foot was selected but told that he has to stop doing an impression of one of the N'Sync boys or he will be thrown out of the group. He said it would be no problem. Off camera he started working on his O-Town impression.

I was shocked to find out that the Britney Spears look-alike was not chosen. How could you pass up on an ex-XFL cheerleader? More shock followed at the end of the show when we got to see a preview that leads us to believe that one of the chosen members of the group will have to leave. That leaves an opening for who? Answer: The girl that Britney Spears looks like!

The artists of Lascaux used manganese ores and charcoal to mix their black pigments. Those of the Renaissance used manganese oxide to enrich the brown in their umbers. Manganese blue went extinct in the twentieth century. The twentieth and twenty-first centuries had a lot of artists, most of them bad but all of them wanting the very finest paints. By the time humanity planted its first colonies in deep space, all the best natural pigments had been depleted from the surface of the Earth.

I actually sent an executive a shoe with a note in it. He was the VP of all Internet operations. I tried to get in to see this guy for three or four months. I called him every day. I sat in his office. I went to see his boss. But I could never get in to see him.

So I sent him my shoe with a note that said, 'Now that I have my foot in the door, will you have lunch with me?,' and I got a call back in five minutes on my cell phone. And we won the deal.

In Desecration, Antichrist Nicolae Carpathia enters the temple in Jerusalem and declares himself God, leading the world to the brink of Armageddon.

And get this, the book features soft-spoken Chaim Rosenzweig. It's #9 in a series.

The best-selling end-of-time fiction series tells the riveting stories of people who, after the rapture of the church are "left behind" to experience the tribulation and other events prior to Christ's return to Earth. With the prophetic teachings of the Bible as the background, this dynamic apocalyptic fiction has captured the imaginations of millions.

I guess if you're interested, you'd have to start reading the series at Left Behind, which is book #1.

Passengers aboard a Boeing 747 en route to Europe disappear. Instantly. Nothing remains except their rumpled piles of clothes, jewelry, fillings, surgical pins, and the like. All over the world, in a flash, cars are left unmanned. Terror and chaos continues worldwide as the cataclysm unfolds. For those left behind, the apocalypse has just begun.

Wondering if that rapture will soon be upon us? No problem. Consult the Rapture Index.

You could say the Rapture index is a Dow Jones Industrial Average of end time activity, but I think it would be better if you viewed it as prophetic speedometer. The higher the number, the faster we're moving towards the occurrence of pre-tribulation rapture.

After the killing spree, investigators said, the suspects allegedly planned to rendezvous on the school roof, ''party'' with drugs and alcohol, and then take each other's lives with gunshots to the face.

In Jones's bedroom, writings on the wall contained the phrases, ''I hate the world,'' ''Everyone must die,'' and ''Kill everyone,'' according to police reports.

Yesterday, Jones's mother, Susan St. Hilaire, continued to portray the charges as a misunderstanding that has targeted ''great kids.'' Carol McKeehan, the mother of the other two suspects charged, shook her head when asked if she believed her children were guilty.

Hello? Shook her head which way? Up and down or right to left? I'm betting on right to left because she probably had no clue what her kids were up to.

> Shaking one's head is right to left, by my view. Nodding would be up and
> down, at least in New Bedford.

My response:
Not in Albania.
Some Albanian characteristics and mannerisms resemble those of the mainland Greeks, most notably in the more rural areas; for instance, a nod of the head means 'no' and shaking one's head means 'yes'.

When I first met Zeke, I was arranging turnips in the produce case. He tied a red apron around his slender waist, covering up part of his Harley-Davidson T-shirt, shook his head, and said, "This job sucks." Then, opening a case of grapefruit, he said, "That manager's an idiot."

Hmm... That reminds me of the time I was working in Zayre Department store. The announcement came over the PA, "We need baggers to the front!" I ran up to the front as fast as I could because if you weren't fast, you wouldn't get to bag for the prettiest cashier.

My High School ReunionI can't understand why more people don't go to high school reunions. I always enjoy going back to mine.

I have great memories from Lynn Classical High School. We had a good class.

Remember When:

The Band at the school dance was CRAGG ZOPP, and it was made up from a bunch of guys from ZAYRE in Saugus?

We turned THE TERRACE (GE UNION HALL) into a school party on FRIDAY NIGHTS, and you had to be a 'member' to enter?

There was an ice skating rink on Boston Street, and couples skate time allowed you to ask her to hold hands and skate around the rink?

Learning FORTRAN with PUNCHED CARDS was the computer course, and you'd wait a week to see if your program ran correctly over at Lynn Tech, only to get the cards back to find out that you made one typo and had to wait another week to see if your program ran right?

Getting so drunk that the center lines on the street and everything else looked double, but you drove home anyways with one eye closed and didn't think about it too much?

You joined the Ecology Club because you thought it would look good on your College Application?

The advanced Biology class was easier than the regular Biology class?

Mr. Murphy subbed and asked us music trivia questions?

Yes, I did pull out the old yearbook before going back to refresh my memory. I do approve the use of name tags with high school yearbook pictures. They help. And, no ... it's not rude to look down at the person you are meeting's badge to see who they are. I did that a number of times.

At the sign in table I was wondering why I didn't recognize any of the people signing us in. Hey, I had NO CLUE who these people were. Later I found out that they were not from our class. They were registration people.

I was surprised and happy to see a lot of really good friends that I had lost touch with. Now I've got their email addresses and hope to stay in touch.

The DJ was really good, a little loud if you were sitting up close, but his selection of music would put to shame the local Classic Rock station.

I had expected to see a lot of fat and balding people there, but the girls looked great!

McAfee VirusScan 6.0 doesn't support Windows 95b like it says it does on the box.

I thought I was doing a good thing by upgrading my virus protection on my PC, but after talking to customer support over at McAfee, I'm not to sure.

First of all, their email response system stinks. I emailed a question to them, they replied with more questions, I responded with answers to their questions, and got a response telling me that they hope that they had resolved my questions. Dumb, Dumb, Dumb.

So I tried thier online support CHAT area. This lead me to a chat with one of their techinicians who after much typing back and forth informed me that McAfee VirusScan 6.0 doesn't support Windows 95b like it says it does on the box. He suggests that I downgrade to version 5.0 or upgrade to Windows 2000.

So I was watching MTV yesterday morning with my mother. The Real World was on and she got hooked. She thought that MTV just played music videos. She says, "It's like we're getting a look into these people's private lives. Is this real?" My wife yells in, "No, It's not real."

We went into the heart of Boston and did some shopping to support the economy and while we were down there we took a break to get some Jordan Marsh Blueberry muffins. They are the best. Jordan Marsh isn't around any more, but the guy who made their muffins is. He has a bakery on the South Shore and ships fresh muffins up to a coffee shop between Filene's and Macy's. Some people have posted versions of the recipe here and here and here and here.

At home, I watched the making of O-Town on MTV. It doesn't matter whose lives they show me about, I just keep watching. At 8:30 I switched over to VH1 for the pre-show to the Live On-Tape U2 concert. VH1 was showing U2: Legend. Great story. That was followed by U2's Boston concert. Now that's a band! I recently said that J.Lo beat out Britney, U2 has it all over them by 1,000 times. It's clear that they are one of the greatest rock bands ever. That crowd had a super time.

Some of the concert footage reminded me of when I saw Bruce Springsteen in Atlanta at the Omni. He had every single person in that stadium pumping their fists in unison.

Star Wars Episode I Topps Trading Cards - Watch it again this weekend on TV.

On a dark night in June four terrorists crawled out of a submarine and up the Long Island, New York coast. A lone coastguardsman on routine patrol saw the four men on a beach. The coastguardsman was unarmed and a bit scared but still asked the men their business.

Washington, DC - Senate majority leader Tom Daschle called today for a 5 day waiting period for box cutters, nail clippers, and tweezers, saying that it was time to "get serious about our fight against terrorism."
